Download C2000 support files separate to controlSUITE

Hi Gautam

Thanks for the info. Looks like there is an addition of v221. Is it possible to download this by itself?

Also do you know any recent news on MISRA or ANSI C compliance for the support files?

Thanks

PS: I have started converting the 220 driver support files to MISRA and ANSI C compliant and what I have done to date is on GitHub at https://github.com/wolf99/f28027_v220m. So far I have resolved all ANSI C issues and any superficial MISRA issues (e.g. comment styles, explicit casts, etc) reducing the MISRA warnings from a few thousand to around 400. See the v0.1 release if interested. Looks like I may soon be running out of time to spend on this though as it is kind of a side project for me :\

Toby,

controlSUITE files are currently contained in a single package and can't be downloaded separately. But since you already have controlSUITE installed, you can run the controlSUITE updater to download just the files added in v3.2.9. Within the ~/controlSUITE root directory, run "controlSUITE.exe" (Recommended to be run as administrator on Windows) then select "Check for controlSUITE Updates" on the left side, and finally click the "Check for controlSUITE updates" on the page that appears on the right.  This should initiate an update to your controlSUITE. 

Best Regards,

Chris

Thanks Gautam,, the "Run as Administrator" was key and something I never remember to think of!
Which forum is best to ask about the compliance in?

Gautum, Chris,
Further to this, are the changes between versions documented anywhere (Similar to other libraries such as DPLib)?
The revision information in the user guides included in the files don't give much away, but this information would be very helpful when upgrading versions.
Many thanks.

Toby,

The changes between versions for devices, such as F2802x, is only found within the Firmware Development Package User's Guide. (For F2802x, located here: ~\controlSUITE\device_support\f2802x\v221\doc). The detailed revision history section provides a summary of all the updates and bug fixes between each revision.

Best Regards,

Hi Chris,
My issue here is that the files you mention do NOT contain a detailed revision history.

While they do have a section titled "Revision Information" I would hardly call it detailed as it consists entirely of the following line:

This is version 221 of this document, last updated on Fr i Oct 17 08:58:50 CDT 2014

UPDATE: Mea culpa; the above is in  the DRL UG, the EX UG contains a more detailed section. Does this section in the EX UG apply to both the structure headers and the driver headers?

Toby,

Yes, the detailed revision history section lists fixes that can include structure headers and driver headers changes, but depending on the fix, it may be specific to one or the other only.

Best Regards,
Chris

Hi Gautam
I use newest version of device support, but it have an error that header files in version (e.g V230) don't use the same type of data. I mean that the type Uint16_t and Uint16, what should I do to use this version and whether new version take dominant performance to MCU?

Hi Tien,

I observed the same and went back to the one I was comfortable with ie the previous version. You can check the errata for any performance upgradation.

Gautam
